schollenen

Love this card from a Swiss postcrosser. Schollenen Gorge, a dramatic bit of Swiss scenery with sheer granite walls, is known too for its spectacular bridges and tunnels. The most famous is the Devil's Bridge. From what I am able to gather, this image was painted alongside the entrance to a tunnel over the bridge by Swiss painter Heinrich Danioth (1896-1963).
